Understanding how Harmony works

Your Harmony 200 allows you merge the remotes of up to 3 of your home entertainment devices into one so you can, and should! keep those other remotes out of sight.

The MyHarmony desktop software will guide you through entering the manufacturer and model numbers of your home devices so Harmony understands how to control them. It then helps you create your Watch TV Activity (or scene) so you're only one-button away controlling your devices.

That's it! Click the Sync button to transfer these settings to your remote.

Press the one-touch Watch TV button to turn on and off your TV and cable/satellite box with a single touch. Learn more about customizing this button.

Control your devices individually using these three buttons. To operate a device just click the device you want to operate and you’re in control. To turn a device on or off, click the device you want to operate and then press the power button.

Press the Off button to power off your selected entertainment devices.

Easily cycle through inputs to find the one you need.

The Harmony 200 buttons are automatically optimized for your Watch TV Activity. Channel buttons will control your cable/satellite box while volume will control your AV receiver.

Set up a Watch TV Activity to automatically power on/off devices you use to watch TV. After pressing the Watch TV button, be sure to keep the remote pointed at your devices until the device buttons turn off. Press the Watch TV button again to turn off all the devices. Learn more about customizing the Watch TV button.

Keep your devices in sync

To help keep your Harmony in sync with your devices, avoid turning your television, cable/satellite box and other devices on and off manually or by using their original remote control.
